A 150mm is a large artillery Shell which is used in late-game artillery weaponry.
Uses
Specifications
Like other artillery shells it is indirect fire: it has a natural inaccuracy which increases with range, its trajectory is affected by the wind, and it can trigger the retaliation of Howitzer Garrisons. Exceptionally, it is used in direct fire mode by large guns on Battleships and Destroyers.
It explodes on impact.
By default its explosion deals 900 High Explosive damage in a 7m radius and decreasing amounts in a 11.25m radius. The explosion leaves a mark on the ground that can devastate the ground and can sometimes produce Craters.
It's effective against most structures but less against very resistant ones, and awful against Trenches.
It is mediocre against armored vehicles and its innacuracy makes it hard to hit a mobile target. It can disable their subsystems (the tracks in most cases).
It can kill infantry and unarmored vehicles although that isn't cost efficient.
Whereas 120mm is the go-to shell to destroy Tier 1 and Tier 2 structures, 150mm is often used to siege concrete, and other structures with higher resistances due to its increased damage.
Users
The following infantry weapons, vehicles, and structures use 150mm:
Production
Structure | Input(s) | Output | Time |
---|---|---|---|
Ammunition Factory (Large Shell Factory) | 3 x Construction Materials 2 x Heavy Explosive Materials 4 MW of power |
1 x 150mm | 00:00:40 |
Factory (Heavy Ammunition) | 120 x Basic Materials 10 x Heavy Explosive Materials |
Crate of 5 x 150mm | 00:01:05 |
Mass Production Factory (Heavy Ammunition) | 120 x Basic Materials 10 x Heavy Explosive Materials |
Crate of 5 x 150mm | 00:10:50 |
150mm in Facility personal orders can be retrieved as crates with RMB
> "Retrieve as crate".
Tier 2 Facilities must be fully researched in the Weapons and Structure Tech Tree in order to be produced.
Storage
150mm does not stack in inventories (1 per slot) except in ammo slots dedicated to 150mm in certain vehicle or structure inventories (varying stack sizes).
It is a Large Item, a soldier can only carry one at a time on their shoulder.
